Hotel Ristorante Vapore

Lake Como


At the north end of Torno's lakeside square, this family-run hotel-restaurant has an elegant dining room and an even lovelier lakeside terrace. Both make fine settings for lake fish and beautifully executed pastas and steaks.

If you need a break from the heaving crowds of Como (city), you can also overnight in one of the hotel's peaceful rooms (doubles around €130)
